Leslee's Diary - This time I'm doing it for me...

Well another good day, just about to go down and do my evening exercises...managed to drink 3.5 litres of water today (not sure about the conversion) that is about 4 of my sport drink bottles.

Drinks on Saturday are off so at least I don't need to worry about my calories coming from alcohol...

;)
 
Everything going really well so far this week, decided to have a rest yesterday morning so I went for a walk for 30 minutes instead of jogging, my body is feeling a little weary after 3 days of hill running...

Have been keeping to my 2 workouts a day managed to get 30 minutes in last night, skipping, stepper, weights and squats...

Have just finished my workout this morning, more skipping, stepping, ab work, and some weights (I didn't feel up to running again today)

:D
 
Wooohooo,

I am starting to notice good definition in my abs, just under my ribs it is quite scooped out now and my upper abs are quite firm to touch...now just need to get rid of the last of my mummy tummy...

Finally it is good to notice some rewards for all those crunches:D :D
 
Well did my Saturday morning workout, 30 minutes was all I had time for...did about 10 minutes stepping, 5 minutes ab work, 5 minutes stair climbing, and 10 minutes crunches, situps, leg lifts, squats and weights.

I feel this workout should be much longer and on days I have time I lose track of the clock and often come up an hour later....but 30 minutes is all I have time for in that morning slot:eek:

Anyway hopefully it is still helping, have done 10 workouts so far this week so that all added up is a considerable amount of time...have my family walk to add in tomorrow which is usually just over an hour....

When added together the time looks much better...

Weigh in tomorrow.........:confused:
 
You are doing soooooooo good with your exercises.. You lost weight. Don't worry 'bout it. Have a Great Weekend. Drink your WATER:D
 
I to joined for the same reasons as you. I was up with my son in the middle of the night. I was wide awake and feeling sorry for myself when an inspriational episode of The Biggest Loser came on tv. I then ended up here where I desparately needed some support. Wow I must say I certainly feel so welcome here.


I love the journal aspect of this Weight Loss Form.
 
Well I have a big confession to make...

I had a quarter pack form KFC tonight and a slice of cheesecake:(

Actually it is quite good because it has that whole 'treat' feeling now rather than a common occurence....

Back on track tomorrow!:p
 
Well weigh in day....

I have lost .5kg...(1.1lb) which is not as much as I would have liked in a week but better than nothing...

The good thing is I am noticing my body shape changing...it is looking heaps better!

Not doing any exercise today, hubby has gone for the 'family' walk on his own as my ankle needs a break(it is still swollen)

Hopefully giving it a day off will help...

Goal this week...to weigh 74.5kg(1kg weight loss)(2.2lb)
To maintain my two workouts a day on at least 4 days of the week
To watch my bread intake
 
Hello Mum! Wow, just scanned through your diary. You are a work out machine! Good for you. I bet it's great to see definition forming. I can't wait to see some under the Jelly. I know it's there!!

Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see you reach your goal. Way to drop that weight and figure out what works for you.
 
Hey thanks...

don't know about work out machine but I do feel very driven to get rid of an excess at the moment...lol:D

I actually have just started logging everything into fitday and that has been interesting, have to tweak a little of the carbs in my diet and up the proteins...but so far so good:p
 
Well kept up the bargain with myself....jogged yesterday for 25 minutes and then did another 30 minutes of cross training (skipping, stepper, weights etc) in the evening.

Today I went for a fast paced run for 15 minutes this morning and have just completed a 25 minute workout of skipping, stepping, weights, crunches etc...pushed myself really hard and it feels good!

All going well, doing really well on the food here too!

:)

Calories eaten yesterday - 1336
Calories burned by exercise - 415

Calories eaten today - 1443
Calories burned by exercise - 323

(dont yah love fitday)

Yay!! I'm soo glad you've stuck with the program! And congrats on your "treat". Feels good, don't it? :) Thanks for comin to check on me, hope you have a fantastic day tomrrow :D
 
Have just got back from my jog, did 30 minutes today...and ran a little bit further than usual....really hard work so that is good!

All set for the day now:D
 
:D :D Had another good day....1520 calories eaten and 490 calories burned through exercise (but it seems like so much more the amount of sweat that pours off me!)

Just finished my evening exercise did 35 minutes tonight, really challenged myself on the skipping tonight, must have done at least 15 in total and have added a set of 50 step ups (running speed) to my routine. Last night I did 100, tonight just the 50, but did way more high intensity skipping tonight so felt ok about that.

I average about 70 crunches now and about 50 leg lifts so am feeling happy about that...:D
 
You Are Rocking And You Can Do This!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Just back from my 25 minute run....20 minutes of that spent running up hill:eek:

Feel good about getting it out of the way today as I just did not want to get up out of bed this morning.....

Will post more later
